Hericium is a genus of edible mushrooms in the family Hericiaceae. Species in this genus are white and fleshy and grow on dead or dying wood in shaded areas of deciduous and Alpine forests of North America, Europe, and Asia. The fruiting bodies look like a mass of fragile icicle-like spines dangling from either a branched framework or from a tough, unbranched cushion of tissue. Due to this distinctive structure, Hericium species have various common names among which are monkey’s head, lion’s mane, and bear’s head.Usually, fruit bodies have short stalks and are attached laterally to the host tree. While mature specimens are easily recognizable by their drooping spines hanging downwards, immature specimens often begin as a single clump, only developing their branches as they age. Hericium species are commonly consumed in North America and China and also used in traditional medicine in China and Japan.
